D                          G         C      G
 When we met it was in the hot green jungle   
  D                                G        C     G
  Your perfect flesh impervious to anything fungal   
 D               Em
 You would sweat coconut milk 
    C                G            D
  And i'd lie awake, restless with the heat there in the  
Em
night 
 C          G
 Dawn would come  
  D                    Em
  And I would start to feel my own sunrise  
    C           G   C         G
 but you'd just lie, sleeping    
And so we went away in search of gentler breezes  
When we arrived I longed to lie and rustle in your grasses 
But you would not permit me to retire there  
None but a fly might settle on the meadow of your leg 
Then we moved until we reached the tundra in the winter 
Of course I longed to kiss her frosty teeth in the cold air  
But now I'v grown bloated on seal fat  
Not even flies might settle on the meadow of her leg
